a while ago I created a Christmas Elf Box for my son to give to my daughter for Christmas. Yesterday, I finished the one for my daughter to give to my son - there will be his first fountain pen inside.

stamp the sentiment from Waltzingmouse Stamps Elf Made onto a kraft panel with Distress Ink (Gathered Twigs), heat-emboss with the same embossing powder and ink up the edges with the same ink color - put some Versamark underneath the Distress Ink on the clear stamp to minimize pooling and get a crisp sentiment

cut a triangle shape from wood, stamp Flamingo-Art H-2087 with Distress Ink (Gathered Twigs) and heat-emboss with the same WOW! embossing powder (be careful not to heat it too long, for it will turn white on the wood - ask me how I know :o)
